Naltrexone is an opioid-receptor antagonist with approved uses in alcohol-use disorder and prevention of relapse to opioid dependence; compounded uses may differ.
It blocks opioid effects and can precipitate severe withdrawal if opioids are still in the body.
The schedule depends on indication and formulation. Opioid-free timing and suitability must be determined clinically.
Possible effects include nausea, headache, dizziness, fatigue and liver enzyme elevations.
It may often be taken with food if stomach upset occurs, depending on formulation.
